I debated on my post, because I admire him so much. But it’s like he thinks people aren’t going to believe that he’s studied persuasion, so he has to say it over and over again to assert himself. Which would be understandable except that this is coming from the guy who created Dilbert. Scott Adams has blown the world away for decades precisely because he sees so clearly into exactly how people work that he’s made millions roasting them carefully over the fire of his insight, like a perfectly browned marshmallow on a stick over a campfire. So it’s weird he doesn’t recognize that we already believe his skill set.

I do not believe he is still speaking to the choir. He is addressing the congregation - those who sit in the back and observe, as opposed to getting involved.

Just my opinion.

Besides - one aspect of persuasion that the left has long understood and the right has long neglected is the repetition of information. That is why the lefty lie has such longevity - they repeat them until they are taken to heart.
